¹⁵Ndipo Jezu adawabebesa aciti, “Bvesesani mucenjere na cakutupisa ca wafaliseyu na ca Herodi.”

¹⁶Pamwepo wakupfundzira wale adayamba kutsutsana acimbati, “Ali kulewa bzimwebzi thangwe tiribe mkate.”

¹⁸Maso munayo, tsono muniwona lini? Ndipo makutu munayo, tsono mumbabvesesa lini? kodi imwe m'nkubukira lini?

¹⁹Pale ndidagwata-gwata mikate mixanu kuti ndidyese wanthu bzulu bzixanu, kodi mudadzaza bzitundu bzingasi bza bzakusala?” Wakupfundzira wale adati, “Bzitundu khumi na bziwiri.”
